About this book

This edited collection delves into the multifaceted theme of 'Silenced Voices,' showcasing a diverse array of perspectives from scholars around the globe. From historical reflections to contemporary analyses, the book examines the complex dynamics of voice suppression and enablement across different media landscapes. Divided into four thematic sections, the chapters explore the challenges faced by marginalized and mainstream voices alike. From the portrayal of silenced narratives in the news media to the representation of underrepresented groups in cultural production, the collection spans a wide spectrum of issues. Authors employ varied methodological approaches to investigate the silencing of voices in the realms of politics, society, and professional media practices. Offering fresh insights and critical reflections, this volume serves as a timely contribution to ongoing debates surrounding freedom of expression, fake news, and the complexities of contemporary media environments.
